CHAPTER xLyIII.
IMusr SEE HER.

If Lady Stair wore that locket on the day she left home, how could it pos- slbly come into the possession of Mrs. Grey? How they discussed that ques- tion: the duke with all his shrc wdne Lord Stair, with all his experience; the duchess, with all her quick instinct. yet none of them, even ever so slightly or faintly, guessed tine truth. At last, by some sudden aspiration, the young duchess turned to her father.
 .Papa,n she said, there We are all puzzling ourselves as to how the locket came to be in Mrs. Grey's box; we have asked first one then the other, 1t has not occurred to us to ask Mrs. Grey herself, the only one who could explain it."
 Husband and father looked at each otker with start of surprise.
 II wonder" cried Lord Stair, "that we never thought of that before."
 "The most sensible idea we have had yet" said the duke. "rhe question is who shall go to see her? l should per haps have the most authority.n
 q should have no influence at qll," said Lord Stair, 'as 1 have never seen the woman."
 II think" said the young duchess, Eff were permitted to go, she would be moro Inclined to trust in me; she always liked me-"
 My dearest Ethel," cried the duke. looking at his wife's beautiful face and dainty figure, .-i would moi have you go to such place for all the orld,''
 .'I should not mind it in th1 least," she replied. Fl can not tell how orwhy a tn ta11 you ina trtlfh II should like to go."
 "You could go to the prison with her." said Lord Stair to the duke. 'sI think it will be the best plan. 1 can not bear the sense of mystery.n
 sI cave been thinking" said the duchess, that, after all, there may be a very commonplace solution of what seems to be a mystery. If my dear mother did, as Lady Holte says, wear the locket when she lett for that most fatal journey she must have lost it, or, after the accident. it may have been nickel up and sold or given away"
 sBut why. in that case, should she declare herself guilty?n said Lord Stair, and his face was strangely troubled. "She alwaps persisted in declaring her self guilty"
 "Yes. 1" added the duchess: ''but I noticed that she never said guilty Of what, and l shall never belive that she wns guilty of the theft"
 .rhere WAS no thefF on her part" said Lord Stair, "lf she did not take tue portrait from you. IF, as you sur mise, it came into her possession by accident, or by some chance of which we know nothing, how could 1t pe 2 theftsn

Transportation Rates.

IN the last canvass there was considerable
discussion in relation to transportation
charges on the railroads, and itswas assert.
ed that they were not regulated at equi
table rates, and that the Interstate Com.
MERGE law passed by Congress did not
secure the ends it was intended to accom-.
plish in these respects. Most of the candi,
dates and speakers who entertained these
views maintained that it was incumbent on
the Legislature to review the question, and
pass such laws as would ensure rates Of
charges on the railroads upon different
basis than the one governing what was
known as long and short-haus 8. The rail-
roads and the commercial progress and the
prosperity of the agricultural interests Of
the country should not ba at variance, MOI
should the railroads seek to make their
local traffic bear more than fair charges for
moving it; but it is charged that the policy
generally pursued is the reverse.
Senator Koiner has introduced a resolu-
tion in the Senate which will bring this
whole question up, and it is hoped that the
investigation by the committee will bring
this subject before the Legislature in all its
true relations, and that laws will be en-
acted settling the difficulty on just princi
pies. This controversy ought to oad, and
Senator Koiper has made an early move
mens to investigate it with that view. The
people desire It, aud the Legislature is the
proper authority to do it.

The Governors Message.

The first regular message of Governor
Lee required of him for presenting to the
Legislature the Condition of the Com
monwealth," was communicated to that
body at its first regular session, when
commenced under his administration, on
the 7th instant, and will be found in its
entirety in this issue of the SPECTATOR.
In all the history of Virginia, which has
been distinguished for the ability OF her
Chief Executive officers as well as Tor ner
grand renown as a Commonwealth among
the States, has there ever been promulgated
to the legislative department a message
which exhibited deeper insight into the al
fairs of the State, or embraced in its scope
more careful thought for the interests OF
the people of all classes and conditions OF
wiser recommendations to secure these
ends.
In craftsmanship, as in arms, in which
our Governor was trained in knowledge
and duty, he has displayed the greatness o.
his nature, rejecting in clear, comprenen
sive, straightforward action the wisdom OF
the people when they called him to civl
rule and responsibility. He came to the
discharge of his duties at time when
general gloom pervaded the State, and the
hearts of the people were respondent from
the effects of partizan discord. he Wai
right when he convened the Legislature II
special session, and made, with that body,
sincere and earnest effort to settle the
public debt controversy, and, by the legis
lation then enacted, was forged the link II
the chain of procedure necessary to accom-
plish it.
The State paper now promulgated vii
be read with deep interest and great salts
faction. 1t will impress the Legislature
because of the fullness of the review and tn
recommendations it contains. 1t will Civ
the people new opportunities to express
their appreciation of their Coy ernor for hi
efforts to conduct all the interests of tn
State-ope with the other-to future Q
mutual progress and power, and to secur
to the people large and full share of pros
perity and contentment.
With this general reference to the admi
rabe message Of the Governor, we nigh
end all we have to say at present, but
deals SO clearly with a acknowledgement
ed and important duty of the Government
the support of the public school system
and it's progress under Democratic direc
tomas to call for SPECIAL commentator
Captious objections and misrepresentation
ought to cease, for the summary Of it's ope
rations as given by the Governor, SHOULD
satisfy every man who proposes 10 dea
fairly in that matter, and will surely do g.
| if he will take the time and trouble t.
make careful and thorough investigation
as the Governor has done. Another chic
interest-agriculture, the prosperity o
which is 80 essential to all others-receive
the care of special recommendations il
several respects, and the large majority o
the members Of the Legislature who Wer
elected avowing a purpose to give 1t ad
ditional State aid, will, in their efforts t.
accomplish that object, receive the cordia
support of the Governor. who appreciate
that great interest and has poiates. on
n,aEy of it's needs.

Mr.. James P. Cooper, who has given hif
guaranty that those who bought coupons
from him or his agents should lose nothing
has issued circular dated Dec. 9th, telling
them that they must "stani up to their side
of the contract and says
eff the sheriff comes to them with an ex
ecution for the Judgment, let them tender
to him the exact amount of what he claims
in coupons, or in coupons and currency. L

very apt to regret it, and the less they hav'
to do with Cooper or his agents in the sal,

are costly things, and after the recent deci

ABOLITION OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE
TAx-Those who are demanding that the
s1hole internal revenue tax should be inc
mediately and at once abolished-that on
whiskey as well as that on tobacco and
fruit spirits-seem to overlook the fact that
the annual revenues then from the only
source left-that of the tariff Or customs
dRties-would not equal the annual ex-
penses Of the government. 1t would be
better to leave the tax ON whiskey, which
is not only luxury, but the source of much
evil, and take a portion of the tax off the
neeessariea of life by reducing the tariff on
such necsssariss. This would furnish relief
to the poor whose necessaries are now taxed
too high.
